The crossover frequency is dependent on the characteristics of the speaker units employed. The rate of attenuation may be 6, 12, or even 18 dB per octave .... General design considerations for crossover networks require that the crossover frequency should start becoming effective before the frequency response of the loudspeaker falls off and the loudspeaker becomes nonlinear. 4, record 3, English, - dividing%20network
